Final Moments of Vacation

I sit here by the pool, reluctant to leave the evening sun, so warm and cheerful in the blue water. As vacation draws to a close, I hate to say goodbye to the sunshine. But I promised to help make dinner, and we must finish cooking and eating before the Ohio State basketball game, so I'll go into the shadow of the house and leave vacation behind.

While I visited my parents, my brother and his family were there too. They brought along their little dog Jasper, who does not like the water, but is willing to get in to "save" his mom when my brother attacks her.
The dog is so funny because the minute he's above the water, he starts dog paddling. Must be some sort of preservation instinct.
The person you hear laughing loudly, is me! I'll need to learn to fix that. Enjoy.
